Gnosticism is an esoteric religious movement which has flourished in the first centuries AD. It offers a truly unique view on existence, and blends theology, mysticism and cosmology.
Divine wisdom, human redemption, and cosmic error – these are the foremost themes of the Gnostic creation myth, which is itself a compelling alternative to the traditional Judeo-Christian narratives. And at the very center of this creation myth lies Sophia, a central figure of Gnosticism, whose actions and consequences set the stage for the creation of the material world and humanity’s spiritual struggle. The myth of Sophia is usually considered an allegory for divine wisdom, and it reflects the Gnostic view which posits that the cosmos is flawed, and that humanity is yearning to reconnect with the divine.
